DROPS Nepal is a robust and luxurious yarn spun from 35% superfine alpaca and 65% Peruvian Highland wool, a mix that accentuates the softness of alpaca and the stability of wool. Both fibers are untreated, foregoing any harsh chemicals and preserving the fiber's beautiful natural properties. 

Nepal is spun from 3 strands, which gives an exciting and rustic stitch definition, and is also ideal for felting. The fibres are dyed prior to carding or spinning, creating deep heathered tones in each yarn.
